What is Aftershock Vulnerability of RC Structures about?
This study assesses the aftershock collapse vulnerability of four modern ductile reinforced concrete frame buildings in California using incremental dynamic analysis. It finds that if a building is extensively damaged during a mainshock, its capacity to withstand aftershocks significantly decreases, with a 40% reduction in collapse capacity observed after 4% interstory drift. The research also identifies physical damage indicators that effectively predict reduced aftershock collapse capacities, emphasizing
